The DeRosa family works very hard to make their restaurant and catering business a success as you can see in the video below.
Their talent and strong work ethic benefit all the people they employ, other companies they buy their products from, the State and Federal government to whom they pay taxes, the charities that receive their donations and customers who enjoy their delicious food.
As the DeRosa family expands their business, the number of people who benefit from their hard work expands.
Notice in the video at 3:10 min. when Marissa talks about the declining work ethic among our youth these days. As union bosses and government (now practically one-in-the-same with Obama and Andy Stern in our White House) use their community agitators to push a redistributive agenda and fill our schools with propaganda that “everyone is entitled to a job – it’s a right,” it’s not surprising that our young people are afflicted with “unwarranted entitlement syndrome.” Buying into the false belief that you’re owed something for nothing will get you nowhere really fast; perhaps that’s why youth unemployment is now at 26.5%.
The DeRosa family gives us a stellar example of those who work hard for what they’ve earned and they should be applauded. Many Americans benefit directly from their sacrifice, strong work ethic, dedication and talent.
However, be assured that the more the government regulates and takes away from what the DeRosa’s earn, the less the DeRosa’s will have to help others benefit from the fruits of their labor, the risks they’ve taken and the hard work and talent they’ve put into their business.
The concept of redistributing wealth (aka “spread the wealth around” as Obama calls it) is a Marxist tenent. For example, taking the wealth created by the DeRosa’s – and millions of other Americans – in order to give it away to someone else has been done repeatedly throughout history in other countries. It has always – always – led to enslavement of the people, starvation and mass murder of innocents by the government elites who impose and control the redistribution. A look at Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Mao, Castro and Che tell the tale, as well as what’s happening today in Venezuela and Brazil. America was never supposed to go in that regressive and oppressive direction.
Our U.S. Constitution makes our Republic the freest nation on the planet. The free market system that our Founding Fathers gave us (i.e. capitalism, as Marx called it) is what makes the opportunity for this American Dream possible for the DeRosa family and all those who benefit from what they have created.
Politicians seeking to “transform” America are striving to change our U.S. Constitution and thus extinguish opportunity to pursue The American Dream.
What a person earns comes from their labor. To take a person’s earnings (i.e. their labor) and give them nothing of fair value in return is a form of slavery. Reasonable taxes paid for police protection, firefighters, road maintenance, etc. is understandable, but anything above and beyond what’s reasonable is theft of ones labor. Obama and some in Congress actually believe that what you earn is owned by them – the Progressives in our government – and they are the ones who will tell you how much of your hard earned money you’re allowed to keep. This is what’s called tyranny and surely it’s a form of slavery.
We must restore America before our Republic, our freedom and our opportunity to pursue The American Dream is lost forever.
